Scarborough Campus Student's Union

SCSU democratically unites, represents, and provides avenues for the diverse 14,000 members of the undergraduate student body of UTSC. We are committed to providing effective advocacy, enriching the university experience, and addressing student needs and interests through the delivery of exemplary cost-saving services.

The SCSU (formerly known as the Scarborough Campus Students’ Council; SCSC) was formed in 1966 and has lead an active role in many victories on campus including the building of the UTSC residences, the creation of a library and the student centre, wi-fi on campus, elevators, introducing the bottled-waterfree campaign, interest-free grace period on OSAP payments and tuition fee billing (the ability to pay tuition fees per semester effective September 2014). These are some of the victories the SCSU has been able to lead because of the commitment of the student membership; students united can never be defeated. SCSU operates year-round through its team of 6 executives, 17 directors, 8 full-time staff, and many part-time staff.

Executive Portfolios

SCSU takes the lead from YOU to bring student issues and concerns to the University administration and decision-makers at all three levels of government. Students shape the direction of our efforts, and the campaigns listed above rely on active participation from our members to be successful. SCSU takes up advocacy by offering Equity Service Centres that respond to student needs.

Being a student can be extremely expensive due to the rising costs of tuition fees. As a result, the SCSU offers cost-saving services to help offset some of these costs such as offering discounted TTC metropasses, health & dental plan, alternative food options, discounted movies, faxing services and many more.

Building meaningful connections through events and social activities is a great way to create a balanced university experience. Your students’ union creates inclusive and accessible programming both on and off-campus that are catered to your interest as a student, giving you to space you deserve to de-stress!
